Pave the Way Foundation in partnership with the Ormylia Monastery in northern Greece will be working to help with Ormylia’s ongoing cancer screening of poor Muslim and Christian villagers in northern Greece. These screenings are specifically for cervical and breast cancer in the remote villages where many of the inhabitants have never had a medical examination.

Jewish gift to the Vatican Library and the Franciscan Custody in Israel
PTWF was instrumental in “paving the way” for the digitization of priceless manuscripts from the Vatican Library and from the Franciscan Custody in Israel. This archiving, for the purposes of worldwide access and education, was made possible through the generosity of the George S. Blumenthal Foundation. Expertise and state of the art techniques in digital photography by famed Israeli photographer Ardon Bar-Hama were used, and also made available through this gift.

Through the generous support and work of the Anglican Order of St. John, the St. Johns Eye Hospital in East Jerusalem cares for the needs of the mostly Palestinian population.
Here, there exists a particular problem, in a population plagued by eye diseases caused by the desert environment. Israeli physicians work at St. John’s and train Arab technologists and physicians.
Israelis and Arabs work together for the common good, showing how cooperation and mutual attention to need, can overcome political differences. Many of the Israeli and Palestinian cooperative initiatives were funded through the Peres Foundation for Peace of Tel Aviv.
PTWF has worked to establish Israeli policies for humanitarian and emergency boarder crossings between Palestinian and Israeli checkpoints, reducing the travel time of emergency medical vehicles.
